What is the deal with HiteX ebay store?

Go to solution Solved by Bitter,

I've bought from them, you can score good deals IF you know what you're dealing with or are able to make repairs to the parts. I scored two motherboards from there for about 1/2 normal price, one I've repaired and I'm using it, the other one I'm waiting on a part to repair it with. I've bought some other used hardware that was otherwise working. They always use the actual item pictures in their listings but can't tell you anything beyond the listing information as that's all they know, they don't do the testing themselves, they seem to be buying it somewhere else. Possibly RMA items, I don't know.

I like to browse for used deals when buying for my own builds, and while looking for an Asus motherboard I wondered upon an ebay Store called HiteX. They're selling computer hardware, all of it used I think, in varying conditions of used and completeness. Some items are outright not working, but the seller is very clear on this matter. I like used hardware because it's recycling, and I usually don't lose out since most stuff either works or doesn't, and accessories can be bought separately, but a whole store of the stuff is a bit peculiar. Does anybody have any experience with this store, or any like it? I'd really like to be able to trust them.

They've been around for 17 years, have thousands upon thousands of positive feedback...why are you suspicious? Seems like you're just being ultra paranoid.
